To Kill a Mockingbird

A FATHER MUST EXPOSE HIS CHILDREN TO A SMALL TOWN'S OUTRAGED PASSIONS… AND CAN ONLY PROTECT THEM WITH HIS LOVE.

Scout Finch, 6, and her older brother Jem live in sleepy Maycomb, Alabama, spending much of their time with their friend Dill and spying on their reclusive and mysterious neighbor, Boo Radley. When Atticus, their widowed father and a respected lawyer, defends a black man named Tom Robinson against fabricated rape charges, the trial and tangent events expose the children to evils of racism and stereotyping.

Reviews:

  • Elora Bell
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.

  • Sariyah Taylor
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.

  • Jackson Butler
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.
